Han Changsheng took out a mirror, cleaned his face, and\nchanged into a new set of clothes before leaving. He always paid attention to\nhis appearance. Even if he was Li Jiulong now, it was only proper to be well\ngroomed to avoid losing face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He rushed to the Writing Hall and found An Yuan surrounded\nby a group of disciples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEr-shixiong, you\u2019re finally back!\u201d \u201cEr-shixiong, are you\ndoing well?\u201d \u201cWhat fun things did you go while you were out, Er-shixiong?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lord An Yuan, Huangfu Fengxuan Xichen was handsome. His\nmartial art was high, and he had a good temper. Therefore, he was favored by the\nYuehua Sect\u2019s elders and welcomed by his peers. Despite only just returning, the\ndisciples surrounded him threefold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Han Changsheng snorted in displeasure. Li Jiulong used the excuse\nof being sick to sneak down the mountain yet no one discovered it. His master obviously\nneglected him. With the second disciple, An Yuan, so popular, the contrast made\neven Han Changsheng unhappy. Now that he replaced Li Jiulong there was solidarity.\nNo wonder Li Jiulong wanted to poison Lord An Yuan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just as he was becoming more and more displeased, there was\na tug on his clothes. Han Changsheng turned to find Liu Xiaoqi at his side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDa-shixiong,\u201d Liu Xiaoqi stared up at him with bright eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Han Changsheng snapped, \u201cDid you also come to pick up Huangfu?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liu Xiaoqi nodded, \u201cEr-shixiong is kind. Last time, he gave\nme pointers to practice. . .\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Han Changsheng snorted. Buying\npeople\u2019s hearts! What a hypocritical gentleman!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Liu Xiaoqi looked at Han Changsheng\u2019s face and whispered, \u201cBut\nI think da-shixiong is better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng felt much better. While he hadn\u2019t intended to\nhelp Liu Xiaoqi, anything that put him above that dog lord was good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Someone shouted, \u201cThe Head is coming!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yue Peng entered, followed by Yue Yu-er.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Everyone saluted Yue Peng, \u201cAcknowledging the Head Master.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yue Peng walked to the center of the lobby and smiled, \u201cHow is\neveryone?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Everyone rushed to speak. \u201cI haven\u2019t seen Er-shixiong for a\nlong time!\u201d \u201cWhen we heard Er-shixiong returned, we rushed over!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAll right.\u201d Yue Peng patted An Yuan\u2019s shoulder, \u201cEveryone\nlikes you. Was your trip smooth?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n An Yuan took out a letter and handed it to Yue Peng, \u201cThis is\na reply from the head of Nanshan Sword Sect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yue Peng received the letter. \u201cExcellent, I can rest assured\nwhen you do things!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSince we are all here, I will make an announcement. I\u2019ve\ncontacted the heads of several major sects. In half a year, a Martial Arts Conference\nwill be held. I will take five outstanding disciples with me to the conference.\nLearn from each other, and practice hard. If someone isn\u2019t here, let each other\nknow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The children responded affirmatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yue Peng said, \u201cIt\u2019s getting late. Huangfu\u2019s been out for\nseveral days, leave him be and go back, all of you.\u201d Then he left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once he was gone, everyone closed in on An Yuan again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng came to see An Yuan. They had only met briefly\non the mountain, and he was now burdened with this dog lord. He now had to figure\nout the dog lord, but he didn\u2019t expect so many people this time. He would not\nwedge his way in so he would have to find another opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng turned and left, but not long after someone\nshouted from behind, \u201cDa-shixiong!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n He looked back to find An Yuan himself chasing after him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng stopped and let him catch up. An Yuan took an\nink stone from a package and handed it to him, \u201cDa-shixiong, this is for you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng took the ink stone, confused. This dog lord was\ndoing strange things, what was he supposed to do with it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI bought this in Moliang Village. Before I went down the\nmountain, you said your grandfather liked their products. When you sweep his\ngrave this year, you can use this as a sacrifice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Startled, Han Changsheng couldn\u2019t help but laugh. Moliang Village\nwas just past the mountain from before. It was strange for An Yuan to pass\nthrough the mountain they met on if he had gone from Yuehua to Nanshan Sword Sect.\nThe path was famous for thievery. For Li Jiulong to mention this to An Yuan, it\nwas obviously a trick to get him up the mountain so he could arrange a stabbing.\nBut ended up getting stabbed himself. Han Changsheng had gotten into so much\ntrouble, and all along the culprit was Li Jiulong! It\u2019s a pity he was killed. Han\nChangsheng wanted to take him up the mountain to beat him out of anger!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng\u2019s expression was bad, and he grunted, pulling\nthe ink stone into his arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDa-shixiong, what\u2019s the matter? Why are you upset?\u201d asked\nAn Yuan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNothing. Did you meet Demon Cultivators at Moliang Village?\u201d\nHan Changsheng had spent many days in Yuehua, and he was already missing Tianning.\nIf he could go back, he would never run away again even if he had to practice\nfor seven hours every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cUnfortunately, no.\u201d An Yuan, who still wore a gentle smile,\nsuddenly appeared dignified. \u201cIf I met a demonic cultivator, I would have made\nthem pay!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng rolled his eyes. By yourself? Even if you\u2019re an immortal, you\u2019ll still be looking for\ntrouble with Tianning in a decade!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n He wondered, \u201cWhy do you hate demonic cultivators so much?\u201d Since\nhe gained leadership of Tianning, he played games away from the Sect all day\nlong. The teachings of demonic cultivation were long gone. The relationship between\nTiannning and Yuehua sect was now more gossip than anything. For An Yuan to\ngnash his teeth at the thought, it made no sense. Were those upright guys brainwashing\nchildren!<\/p>\n\n\n\n An Yuan said, \u201cDemonic cultivators killed my father. Even if\nit takes my life, I must avenge him!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng frowned, \u201cWho is your father?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n An Yuan looked at him strangely. Han Changsheng pursed his\nlips. He was now Li Jiulong, An Yuan\u2019s da-shixiong. Li Jiulong should already\nknow who An Yuan\u2019s father was. There was no way out now. The Black and White Impermanence\ndidn\u2019t have time to introduce all of An Yuan\u2019s experiences, so he had to ask\nhimself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n An Yuan thought it was strange but answered good-naturedly, \u201cDa-shixiong,\ndid you forget? My father was the Lord of Tianyuan Mountain, Huangfu Tugen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAh!\u201d Han Changsheng cried. Huangfu Tugen! Now he knew why\nthe man wanted to name An Yuan Huangfu Fengxuan Xichen!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDa-shixiong, what\u2019s wrong?\u201d An Yuan frowned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNo, it\u2019s nothing!\u201d Han Changsheng waved it off again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n An Yuan stared at him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Han Changsheng was thinking. He hadn\u2019t heard of Huangfu\nTugen, but he had an impression of Tianyuan Mountain Mountain. The Lord of\nTianyuan Mountain. . . What was it Tianning taught about them? He could not\nrecall. Some other day, he would go back to Lushan and ask Xiaoqing and Xiaobai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
